Disconnecting the Drive

To disconnect the HP Personal Media Drive safely:

1Close all programs that may be accessing your HP Personal Media Drive. Make sure that the activity light on the drive is off.

2Double-click the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the system tray (on the Start taskbar). If this icon is hidden, click the arrows on the taskbar to display it. The Safely Remove Hardware window opens.

3Double-click USB Mass Storage Device to locate your HP Personal Media Drive. USB Mass Storage Device may be listed twice. One may contain a memory card reader or other mass storage drive.

4Select the HP Personal Media Drive, and then click OK. The name of the drive may be different if you renamed it, or it may appear as Generic Volume followed by the assigned drive letter.

A Safe to Remove Hardware message appears in the system tray, letting you know that the device is safe to disconnect.
